Default Timecode reader plugin

Does anyone know of a timecode reader plugin that can display LTC recorded on an audio track of a PT session within PT, rather than my current technique of feeding it out an output and into another computer or iPad running an LTC reader app? Similar to the Final Cut Pro plugin AuxTC.

The session timecode and the timecode on the audio track are different - the audio track timecode references playback position for long-form music video type production, the session timecode is TOD for the actual film shoot. I don't need to do anything with the audio track LTC other than read it so I can easily spot in the original music tracks.

I dont know of a plugin, but you could route it from your interface to the mac audio input and use Boom Recorder to view the address...

the lite version is a free download...

You could also try:
SMPTE Reader.
Converts/displays TC on Audio input to MTC.
If you're on PT9 or later, you wouldn't need an external cable. Get Soundflower from Cycling74, make an aggregate PT device, route the TC track to Soundflower, and have SMPTE Reader take Soundflower as its input.
